High School Football: Conway upends Jonesboro 42-25; sophomore QB Omolo passes for 4 TD’s in home debut

Conway sophomore quarterback Donovyn Omolo completed 23 of his 36 pass attempts for 355 yards and four touchdowns as the Wampus Cats eased past Jonesboro 42-25 in their first home game of the season. Smith made Omolo’s life easy as the University of Central Arkansas commit hauled in nine of his quarterback’s passes for 154 yards and a pair of scores.

After trailing 3-0 following a Hurricane field goal on their opening series, Omolo found junior wide receiver Clay Fisher on an acrobatic touchdown play that was worthy of a highlight reel.

Omolo’s pass was deflected up into the air by a Jonesboro defender before landing into Fisher’s hands. The junior wide receiver preceded to push through a Hurricane before reaching the end zone for the night’s opening touchdown.

Jonesboro (1-2) hung tight throughout the first half, getting its only offense from a pair of Tenison Roscoe field goals when the Hurricane offense twice reached the Wampus Cat 10-yard-line but failed to score.
